《Heaven's Grip : Orcs of Iaoue》Cleansing 21 : Us Heartache
Advertisement
I went towards the Chief. He seemed to be deeply sad about the turn of events. But that did not stop the Chief from moving forward since he was busy gathering the dead bodies of the goblins and piling them into one place. The Chief told me that there is this thing called offering and this will allow you to receive favor from the Goddess. He told me that there are many types of offerings. One of them is called Festival of Blood where you need to gather blood and flesh to serve as an offering towards your Patron God. He told me that since the Goddess is a member of the Predator Alliance she would happily receive blood and flesh. The other Gods might have different requirements but we really don't need to know them anyway. The Chief did not mean to surprise the horde about this offering thing but because of the recent string of events, he doesn't have the time to do so. 'Well, the Hogs are used to surprises so it won't really matter much.' is what I thought. As the believers of the Goddess of the Moon. The Hogs became active at night but that does not mean we are inactive at day. Of course, our body needs to rest but as our stats increase the duration of sleep, in our lives have decreased as well. Not only that, every time the sun descends and the moon arrives our bodies will be rejuvenated from all the fatigue we receive, one of the effects of our Goddess's Blessing. Making the statement 'sleeping as a Hobby instead of a necessity' is no longer considered as a joke but a reality. Analyze 'Festival of Blood and Flesh'.

The Goddess of the Moon will temporarily allow her clone to descend from the realm of Gods. The clone will grant you one request. AF: Chance of success depends on the offering. Items offered will be lost either success or failure. The Chief muttered something and the dim illumination of dusk turned into darkness. Deep darkness. As the sky above our heads sparked and cracked. The great moon revealed its appearance vanquishing the darkness. A little shiny dot started to travel towards us. As the dot started to grow bigger, a dazzling silhouette with the body structure of a goblin and the old farmer arrived in front of us. The scattered Hogs in the camp started to gather towards the silhouette, even the sleeping Hogs opened their eyes and rushed towards it. The Chief and the horde unconsciously bowed towards this silhouette, even I am not an exception. ........ ........ ........ (cicada chirping) ........ ........ ........ 'This...' nobody spoke we kept bowing our heads. The being in front of us didn't speak, it did not do a thing either. The Chief spoke breaking the silence. "Oh, great Goddess. Please, I offer you this pile of flesh and blood." ........ ........ there's no response and the silence continued. ........ ........ the hogs started to raise their heads and give in to their curiosity. the silhouette no longer shone and the surroundings turned into bloody red hue. An eerie feeling dwelled as the Goddess respond. "This offering, I'll accept, speak thy desire." The being spoke in an indiscernible voice it was not soft nor hard, feminine nor masculine and the tone was emotionless. "Oh great goddess, please bring our fallen brothers back to life." The Chief asked pleadingly as he poked Pic to release the dead bodies. Pic nodded and moved side ways as he brought them out one by one, forming a long line of dead bodies. As the final dead body was placed a notification popped out. TRANSACTION FAILED INSUFFICIENT OFFERING At the same time the notification appeared, the dead bodies of the goblins started to shake. The pile was crushed by an unknown force as it turned into a pool of blood. The moon slowly absorb the pool of blood temporarily making the moon red, the silhouette ascended towards the moon along with the remaining drops of blood. Nobody spoke, but red tears started to fall from the Chief's eyes. The Chief collapsed as the red background turned into black making the surroundings dark. Moments later, the area was illuminated by the moon and the stars as if all that happened earlier was nothing but a dream. The Hogs who were mystified by the happening started to get noisy, they looked at me with eyes asking about 'what the hell was that' kind of look. Of course, I told them about it and they made disheartened faces. It was a failure. The offering that the Chief tried to execute failed, the hopes of reviving the horde members who died was shattered. Though I really don't believe that those who died would turn back to live again. The Chief still clung to the possibility no matter how little it was. We brought the Chief toward his camp spot so he could rest. The Hogs are still grieving, but there was also a portion who continued living just the same and hunted for little critters. When the night ended, the Hogs decided to throw the dead bodies of our brothers into the river. When the Chief rose from his slumber, he spoke about the remaining reward. "REWARD"

BODY&SHADOW
AN ILLUSTRATED NOVEL • UPDATES TUESDAY AND FRIDAY In a time before living memory, the King Dragon of the Void watched the world and realized there was a crack. He realized that humanity was destroying the rock upon which they lived; they leaked life’s code into the churning chaos. At first the change was imperceptible: nanites overtook microorganisms, bacteria, viruses, amoebas. Insects became increasingly inorganic; birds and lizards followed soon after. Even humans were infected by their own advances, cell by cell, till there was not a person left on earth who wasn’t at least part synthetic, the product of a prior generation’s carelessness. The world’s population was ravaged by mechanical viruses with no vaccines; they were mercilessly overtaken by bacteria that knew no death. Soon, most of the planet was empty and only a handful remained who remembered the hedonist realm they came from; only a few were left who remembered what the world looked like when their buildings touched the sky. The King Dragon of the Void watched the rock turn. He watched humans cower as the Old World fell down around them; watched their great monuments crumble into dusty ruins; watched their codes become precious, ancient gem memories forged under the crushing pressure of so many fallen stones. The world has spun many times around the sun since chaos swallowed man whole. It is a simpler time than the one that died out, but the people now are not immune to the folly of the people before. There is old code everywhere: in the water, in the air, in the trees. The heart of man has been replaced by power cores, many of which are hard-coded with preternatural abilities—when they die, an esoteric mountain sect collects their cores and stores them in their hollow mountain home to preserve the sanctity and dignity of human death. They’ve learned to harness artifacts of the old world, gemstones full of codes their nanite infused bodies can parse as spells imbuing their users with great power; they inlay them into their bodies, into their skins, connected to their cores by copper conduit and gold tracers; they dress themselves in tattoos to advertise their prowess; they battle for relics in arenas, fight for them in the open world wherever they are found. The King Dragon of the Void watches the rock turn and wonders: when will this hunger finally make the rock stop spinning? WELCOME TO FANXING CITY … Twenty-five years ago, Fanxing City and the surrounding lands were commanded by the mad King Zao Beiguan. For many years, the King hoarded wealth, artifacts, food; he demanded tribute from a people already taxed to the edges of their existence and expected they be happy with their circumstances. Noncompliance was often punished harshly, bodies displayed proudly on Fanxing’s streets as a warning, from the city gates to the Zao palace’s golden doors. The youths of several prominent clans came together to overthrow the tyrant and made names for themselves as legendary heroes across the land: Tian, Ren, Feng, Gui, Ma, and Zhenxi. Even wanderers from the Luanshi sect descended from Yunji mountain to aid the rebellion. When the dust settled after three years, Tian Yunyong ascended the throne of Fanxing and swore to honour his slain father’s memory, and has maintained Fanxing’s peace with generosity and mercy where fear and cruelty once reigned.
